Read Pie Corbett’s poem: ‘Six things found in a Hobbit’s knapsack’. 

Six things found in a Hobbit’s Knapsack

A wasp’s sting to startle unwary goblins.

Two leather-bound books. One titled, ‘Tunnel digging for beginners’ and the other, ‘Wolves and methods for their avoidance’.

A purse of never-ending wishes.

A pot of gold found at the end of a rainbow.

A pair of twelve-league boots.

A fur-lined cape, the colour of rock, for keeping warm in the winter and using as camouflage. 

Think back to yesterday's lesson when you thought about what you might find in a goblin's bag or suitcase. Using those ideas, write a similar poem to the one above. You can have more than six things and you can include illustrations. You can call your poem 'Things you can find in a goblin's bag' if you like.
